Breaking news: green light for civil unions in Oregon
This is just coming over the wire, via The Oregonian:
A federal judge this afternoon threw out a lawsuit against Oregon’s domestic partnership law, allowing the legislation to go into effect about 4:20 p.m.
Of course, opponents of Oregon’s new domestic partnership law plan to appeal, but for now you can civil unionize to your heart’s content. Well, actually you’ll have to wait until Monday; the county offices are closed on weekends.
